End Back Pain, Anxiety by Calming Danger Signals in the Brain | Howard Schubiner

“You’re calming and soothing that danger signal in the brain. That can have a very powerful effect on reducing or actually eliminating [chronic] pain,” says Dr. Howard Schubiner, summing up how the mind-body approach to relieving pain works.

Schubiner is a world expert in pain management and mind-body medicine; he is also a clinical professor at the Michigan State University College of Human Medicine.Apart from chronic back pain, there’s also scope for pain to be “unlearned” in other chronic conditions, like fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic pelvic pain, and migraine headaches, says Schubiner.For “Unlearn Pain and Anxiety PART 2” on “Vital Signs,” Schubiner gives first-hand examples of pain and anxiety being overcome through pain reprocessing, and emotional awareness and expression therapies.
